[Borgbackup] Can't figure out why files are being detected as modified (files created by backintime)

I am pretty new to Linux and  borg in particular. Overall things work
really well but there is one thing I can't figure out.

I have a folder created with backups created by backintime. I am now trying
to back this up to another disk. Every time I run the backup borg detects
all files as modified and reads them. The deduplication avoids writing new
data but it still reads 500GB every time I run borg.

I have set  "-files-cache mtime,size" bit it still detects all files as
changed. Are there any other properties that make borg think a file may
have been changed?
